The floral world is just as diverse as the flowers it offers. It is dynamic and ever-evolving. It offers fun and joy to work in. Yet, there is hardly a platform that better captures the essence of this beautiful world than the International Floriculture Trade Fair (IFTF). And that time of the year when this fair takes center stage is fast approaching. November 4-6, 2025, it is!

This is the time when the quaint town of Vijfhuizen in North Holland comes alive, welcoming the flower world to the much-anticipated IFTF 2025. Like its eventful predecessors, IFTF 2025 will be an exciting and insightful affair, perhaps even better than previous ones, for the participants, be they exhibitors or visitors. Are you ready for this year's event?

IFTF Celebrates Global Floriculture

Set to be held at Vijfhuizen's Expo Greater Amsterdam, the 2025 IFTF—the nexus of a floral trade and innovation—is practically the leading business event that promotes fresh flowers and plants. For this year's event, the numbers speak much more than just volumes. More than 270 exhibitors—breeders, growers, consolidators, suppliers, logistics, and others from different countries across the world will converge at this single venue and event.

They will be showcasing their products, services, novelties, and innovations. And to crown it all, since the whole floral world will be here, it means that physically attending the event guarantees a firsthand experience of a wide range of flowers, innovations, technologies, and novelties that define the current dynamic flower landscape. Of course, they represent the peak and pinnacle of global floriculture.

Numerous Country Pavilions and Hundreds of Exhibitors All Under One Roof

A standout feature of this year's IFTF—just like in previous years' editions—is the large number of participating country pavilions. These are microcosms of their country's floricultural industries. They feature their varied innovations and specialties. Be it the unique flowers from Ethiopia, the renowned varieties from Kenya, the exotically charming allure of Ecuadorian flowers, the delightful varieties from Colombia, or those delicate oriental flowers from Japan, South Korea, or China. There will be practically everyone's palette of choice at these pavilions.

But more than that, there will still be more: exhibitors who sponsor themselves from the said countries, as well as those from countries like Belgium, France, Turkey, Italy, India, Iran, Chile, Rwanda, Uganda, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Spain, the U.S, and Zimbabwe, among several others. So, whichever product or service you seek, you are more likely to find it here, because it will be a truly global experience.

Bridging Borders by Bringing People Together Through Flowers

Just like any other HPP Exhibitions' event, the essence of IFTF 2025 is to bring the global flower community together under one roof. To create a platform for physical connection, engagement, and networking opportunities. The event is, therefore, much more than just a trade fair. It is a platform that shows just how flowers can bridge borders, cut across cultures, and merge ideologies. The continually increasing number of exhibition booths and stands from different countries' participants collectively points to the growing international recognition and appreciation of the IFTF.

Then the 2025 IFTF experience is one you do not want to miss.
